1. How to find the terraform state of any configuration.
Ans:
terraform state list
terraform state show ‘attribute’
Example:
1.a LoginName@Azure:~/directorysampleone$ terraform state list
azurerm_resource_group.rgterra
1.b LoginName@Azure:~/directorysampletwo$ terraform state list
azurerm_network_interface.nicterrademo
azurerm_network_security_group.nsgterrademo
azurerm_public_ip.publicipterrademo
azurerm_resource_group.rgterrademo
azurerm_storage_account.mystorageaccount
azurerm_subnet.subnetterrademo
azurerm_virtual_network.vnetterrademo
random_id.randomId
1.c LoginName@Azure:~/directorysampleone$ terraform state show ‘azurerm_resource_group.rgterra’
# azurerm_resource_group.rgterra:
resource “azurerm_resource_group” “rgterra” {
id = “/subscriptions/xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx/resourceGroups/terratestResourceGroupa”
location = “westus”
name = “terratestResourceGroupa”
tags = {
“billingcode” = “az103-9009”
}
}
2. Write configuration for creating a resource group.
Syntax:
provider “azurerm” {
version = “~>1.32.0”
}
# Create a new resource group
resource “azurerm_resource_group” “rg” {
name = “myTFResourceGroup”
location = “eastus”
}
3. Find the provider version in any given directory of Terrform configuration.
Ans:
LoginName@Azure:~/directorysampleone$ terraform –version
Terraform v0.12.21
+ provider.azurerm v1.44.0
LoginName@Azure:~$ terraform –version
Terraform v0.12.21
LoginName@Azure:~/directorysampleone$ cat test.tf
provider “azurerm” {
}
resource “azurerm_resource_group” “rgterra” {
name = “terratestResourceGroupa”
location = “westus”
}
NOTE:
In the directory configuration on ‘directorysampleone’, no provider version is mentioned, so it uses both the version in CLI and the latest to initialize.
4. What are the steps to build an infrastructure.
Terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply
5. How to Destroy an Infrastructure?

terraform destroy
